Morning all. Happy Friday everyone. I guess at this point we can start looking ahead to West Ham on Sunday, and Mikel Arteta will meet the press later today ahead of that game. While I’m absolutely sure his focus is 100% on that game, there will be questions about the fact we’ve made it to […]

Morning. So it’s gonna be PSG in the Champions League final after a 1-1 draw with Bayern Munich last night. It was, I think it’s fair to say, not a repeat of the ‘classic’ from last week, almost as if that game was something of a borderline crazy anomaly. Entertaining, sure, but not necessarily a […]

The first midweek game I was ever allowed to attend was the 1994 Cup Winners Cup semi-final against Paris Saint Germain. I had started to go to home games regularly the previous season but was still not allowed to go to midweek games. As I watched Arsenal beat Standard Liege in the round of 16 […]

Morning all. It seems a bit insane to feel like I should start a blog on the day of a Champions League semi-final with something about a game between two other teams, but obviously what happened last night with Everton and Man City has huge repercussions on the title race. Still, I think we have […]

Welcome to another Arsecast Extra, the Arsenal podcast, with myself and James from @gunnerblog. In this episode we look back at Saturday’s very enjoyable 3-0 win over Fulham. It’s one which certainly connected with the fans in the stadium, and we start by chatting about the reaction to the half-time whistle, before discussing an excellent […]

Morning all. Yesterday was a reminder that Arsenal have to do everything ourselves. Which is obvious, really. Win our games, that’s the thing we need to do. Do not expect any favours from anyone. This weekend, we did what we needed to do and did it very well. Elsewhere, silly little men let the world […]

Player ratings – Arteta reaction – Video After weeks of has felt like the most intense grind, Arsenal gave us some much needed calm yesterday with an excellent performance, a clean sheet, first half goals and, of course, the three points we had to get. The last time we scored more than one goal in […]
